    Interested in the setup and of  “remotes “ 

    did you make it yourself ? 

    Yes made it myself, I’ll get a photo when I can. Has a remote receiver wired in to activate horn. 

  2. Hey Matt:

    i have a 12v horn set up similar to DPs photo which I would be happy to donate to Your club. Had it from when I was doing RO duties a couple years ago.

    it has a push button as well as 2 handheld remotes to activate the horn.

    give me a PM if interested

    +1 for Tidal. Over the last few years all the mooring contractors seem to be booked up many months ahead, so it pays to get in early.

    Thanks for that, I got in early by booking in February for an inspection required by 1 September, and still waiting! Not sure how much earlier I could book in!

  4. Bad timing with the level 3 shut down this evening, but can anyone recommend a mooring service contractor in Auckland (Upper harbour) by any chance?

    Find out this evening after booking in a mooring service in January 2020 for a mooring due by the 1st September 2020 that the contractor is still 10-12 weeks away from getting to our mooring with no previous notice. Obviously not going to get a mooring contractor in time now, however need to get it done ASAP. Thanks in advance

  5. Wanting to make this removable but leave the wiring loom in the boat. Is it ok to cut and solder a connection in the middle of the cable? What sort of plug would you use? It’s a 9pin Lowerance/Simrad plug

  6. Glad everyone is safely off. Must be seriously frightening when the keel starts letting go - at least they had some warning and it didn't just randomly drop while sailing.

     

    Didn't this boat have some serious keel issues before, the ram broke and the keel smashed though the side of the wet box off Gisborne or Napier.

    No was V5 and bit different to how you describe it

  7. All good except those who brought a brand new raft for the coastal last year thinking it would be good for a few years to come, and now find its worthless as who needs a cat3 raft now!

     

    Personally I’m against the idea of removing the raft requirements, whilst it’s never been used it, if a boat was to sink and a live lost explaining the rationale behind removing the requirement may be hard as ‘to get more entries’ probably won’t cut it
